Re: st: Chi-square test for Categorical Data Analysis
It is true, of course, as with many statistical techniques, that this
technique may lead you astray. I have not done any simulations
myself, but I will refer you again to the reference in my original
posting:
Parker, R. N., & Fenwick, R. (1983). The Pareto curve and its utility
for open-ended income distributions in survey research. Social
Forces, Vol. 61, No. 3, 872-885.

that this can easily give the wrong answer. Can you give a reference
that supports it?
